Assata Shakur, ¡presente!

The Struggle for Socialism Party honors the passing of Black revolutionary Assata Shakur.

July 16, 1947 – September 25, 2025

“It is our duty to fight for our freedom.
It is our duty to win.
We must love each other and support each other.
We have nothing to lose but our chains.”

Framed up, criminalized, and deemonized by corporate press, the people knew Assata Shakur as a revolutionary fighter for Black liberation as a part of the Black Panther Party and the Black Liberation Army.

After her frame-up and convinction for “murdering a state trooper” in 1977 — a crime she did not commit — revolutionary Cuba granted her asylum in a tremendous show of international solidarity.

We all stand on Assata’s shoulders.

Assata Shakur, ¡presente!
